  Hello, It is nice features but I don't want to do that because I need a class to send request and then get response from CHACHA API. When I got it I need to take the response for other purpose.

  Please check chacha's requirement

  http://developer.chacha.com/docs

  Quick ChaCha Answer API Request

  Description	Search Questions and Answers
  URL	http://query.chacha.com/answer/search.json
  Protocol	HTTP
  Method	GET
  HTTP Header	apikey -- your API key
  URL Parameters	query -- query string pageSize -- number of results

  Thanks for help

  Hi,

  Sorry about my earlier post. My oversight. I mistook "ChaCha" for "CAPTCHA".

  I will try to find a solution for your issue.

  Dear santa_1975;

  Thanks for your support. Could you help me to translate with the below code to ASP.NET. Now I am stupid with this....

  private function _call($url) {

  $opts = array(

  'http'=>array(

  'method'=>"GET",

  'header'=>"apikey: ".$this->apikey."\r\n"

  )

  );

  $context = stream_context_create($opts);

  $request = file_get_contents($url, false, $context);

  return json_decode($request);

  }

  Best regards;

  Hello,

  Now I found a solution to call chacha api. here is the code i found by myself:

  HttpWebRequest

  webRequest.ContentType =

  webRequest.Method =

  webRequest.Headers.Add({

  jsonResponse = sr.ReadToEnd();

  }

   

  webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://query.chacha.com/answer/search.json?query="+query );"application/json; charset=utf-8";"GET";"apikey:apikey provided by chacha");HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)webRequest.GetResponse(); string jsonResponse = string.Empty; using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(response.GetResponseStream()))

  Best regards;
